This makes it a lot easier to find the right settings for other parameters to help your vocals fit well in a song. The first thing you need to do is to find the right settings for the space and size of the reverb using early reflections with the reverb parameter at zero. Some reverbs just sound hollow so you can use an eq to remove that, and reverb can also add some mud to your vocals so use an eq to get rid of that as well. It’s not always a must to equalize or saturate your reverb effect but I do it if I’m using a stock plugin just to give it more character.
To thicken the reverb and make it warm I also add a distortion or bitcrusher in the same reverb return channel. I always use the reverb effect in a return channel so that I can be able to Equalize it if needed. The chamber is really smooth, it is also low-mid focused so good for someone with a low tone voice.
The first thing is to choose a good reverb, but a plate or chamber will mostly work well on vocals. Predelay – This determines when must the reverb start after the direct signal hits the reverb. Size & Time – This determines how long is the decay of the tail and how big is the room you put it in.
Wet means the reverb signal and dry means the direct signal (which is the vocal in our case). If you’re using it on a send or return channel then keep it at 100%. Wet/Dry or Mix – This parameter determines how much reverb must be added to the signal. Let’s look at the common reverb parameters and what they do. Most of the time when vocals are recorded, the vocalists often gets closer to the microphone and when you play it back in your DAW with the rest of the song the vocals will be up in your face (maybe even overpower everything in the mix).Ī reverb effect will come handy to push the vocals front or back in the mix to create more depth and width. Basically a reverb is made up of million little delays and when those delays are put together they sound like a tail of the signal that is getting reverberated. This is a concise guide, meaning you can apply the info below on any reverb you prefer. The video below will show you a visual approach of how to find the right reverb settings for the vocals you’re currently working on. Today we’ll be looking at how to use the reverb effect on vocals to create more depth and space.
